Patrick Wilson at an event for Space Station 76 (2014)

Tiptoe through your window to the Further for a fifth demonic dive into the spooky world of the 'Insidious' franchise before July 2023's 'The Red Door,' plus IMDb presents five of our favorite jump scares from the series. In 2010, we first meet the Lambert family (Rose Byrne, Patrick Wilson) and their son Dalton (Ty Simpkins), who becomes a vessel for demons while in a coma. 2013's 'Insidious: Chapter Two' reveals the astral projection abilities of Lambert patriarch Josh, and how those lead to his own demonic possession. 2015's 'Insidious: Chapter Three' jumps back three years before the Lambert possession to demonologist Elise (Lin Shaye) and her first battle with the Bride in Black. 2018's 'Insidious: The Last Key' delves into Elise's past to reveal that her father was possessed by Key Face, a demon who feeds on fear. And 2023's 'Insidious: The Red Door' follows Dalton Lambert to college where the demons return once more.

Quotes
[on his decision to move to New York] "Six years ago, when I moved, I said the only things I wanted to do was originate the lead in a show, and if it was a musical, then do the recording, and get nominated for a Tony. So now that I've done all that, I don't know what I'm going to do. Maybe I should dream higher."
